in thread Assigning mapped regex to a list

It is a fragment of a \wordpress\wp-config.php file

Ah, ok, that makes a bit more sense. Using Perl to parse PHP... fun ;-) I don't know much about WordPress so I don't know if there might be a better way to get at these values, but I can see how a hack like this might be acceptable/necessary, as long as it's just those three variables and not too much more. Of course, if whoever edits the config file uses any more complicated PHP syntax or expressions, the above regex will break.
